It’s not ALWAYS funnie

How to begin again. After that last blog my world blew apart. Mom had to stay in ICU for over 2 weeks then moved to rehab at St. C’s. While Mom was in ICU, Jan ended up there too. Then Mary Grace as well. What a time. Now Jan is home recovering from shoulder replacement. Mom is settled into assisted living and Mary Grace is home.  She will need further surgery soon however. So here are a few highlights from the past 3 months. It wasn’t all awful and occasionally it was funny. Here goes. 

They said Mom was not the typical 97 year old or all this would not be possible. Everyone who comes in wants to know her secret. She says Attitude!

We survived on hospital food and Chik fil a. 

Everything about this picture is pure Lucy. She was my medical guide. 

You’ve got to be kidding. 

Had to dogsit a few nights. 

It has its perks. 

Sunsets with a cat. 

Morning with cafe latte. 

My UWF sent MG beautiful flowers. 

Fire season started. 

It was nice to come home to fire, pups and great meals provided by friends. 

Mom went through PT and conquered the Tower of Terror pictured here. 

Halloween came. Mom got in the spirit. 

Mary Grace turned 34 while on a diet of only ice chips. I made her a cake. I chopped pieces off and she actually ate them. Pretty tasty with herbs and lime flavor. 

Look how the pancake mushrooms have changed. 

More dog sitting. 

It’s cold now. 

My POV. 

Moved Mom into Marion Hall. 

Oh lort. Photos. We had to close out her 2 bedroom apartment. 13 years worth.  

Thanksgiving came and I enjoyed cooking at home. Delivered to Jan and Tommy and then hunkered down and rested. 

Not quite finished but the new place is shaping up. 

Well we around to Christmas. Let’s hope for healing and hope in the new year.
